TriStar Gold Clarifies Disclosure

SCOTTSDALE, Arizona, March 05, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TriStar Gold Inc. ("TriStar Gold" or the "Company") (TSX-V:TSG) announces that as a result of a review by the British Columbia Securities Commission, the Company is issuing the following news release to clarify certain disclosure.

In a December 4, 2017 press release (the “Press Release”), the Company disclosed an updated mineral resource estimate (the “Updated Mineral Resource Estimate”) for the Castelo de Sonhos project (the “Project”). In the Press Release, the Company disclosed that it intended to complete and file a technical report regarding the Updated Mineral Resource Estimate within 45 days. On December 7, 2017, the Company filed a material change report in respect of the Updated Mineral Resource Estimate (the “Material Change Report”). The Company wishes to clarify that at the time it disseminated the Press Release, the Company was of the view that the Updated Mineral Resource Estimate did not constitute a material change in respect of the Company, and that the Material Change Report was subsequently filed in error. The Company further advises that the Company does not currently plan to file a technical report on a voluntary basis in relation to the Updated Mineral Resource.

In a “feature video” (the “Video”) posted on the Company’s website, the Company made a statement with respect to the potential annual gold production at Project. The Company retracts the foregoing disclosure regarding the potential annual gold production at the Project, and clarifies that insufficient work has been completed on the Project to accurately estimate future gold production.

The Company wishes to clarify that the exploration target range it disclosed in its press release of January 28, 2016, was conceptual in nature, and was a quantitative assessment of the upside and downside potential of the Project. As such, it served as a useful point of reference as the Company planned and executed its drilling campaigns in 2016 and 2017. Now, with drilling covering approximately half of the area covered by the exploration target range, resources have been estimated for approximately half of the target area, and the value of the conceptual target is significantly less now than it was two years ago. Accordingly, the Company will no longer rely on or reference its assessment of the exploration target range and will focus on extending the drilling to all of the remaining prospective areas, so that resources can be reliably estimated throughout the Project area. The reality of drilling is now more meaningful and informative than the conceptual projections presented two years ago, and comparisons of the two provide investors with no useful additional information.

The Company wishes to clarify that any statements in the “fact sheet” formerly posted to the Company’s website with respect to the reserve replacement potential of the Project were intended to convey the Company’s view that the Project would be an appealing property for acquisition by a producing mining company seeking to replace its reserves, and that the foregoing statements were not meant to imply that the Company has established any reserves on the Project.
